Note that Lucinda's parents are reported born in Mississippi. But wesaw in the 1860 census that they are reported as father born inTennessee and mother born in North Carolina. we find the report in1920 for Lucinda also matches the 1860 report. In 1910 we are toldthey were both born in Arkansas.

In 1920, Pink is a widow living in the household of her daughter AllieS Blalock. Ben died in 1913 in Jim Wells County, Texas. We find thatPink and the Blalocks are now living in central Oklahoma, in thecommunity of Rush Springs, in Grady County, a little south ofChickasha.

As for the Native American aspect of the Lovin family, we have noevidence that Benjamin Franklin Lovin B. F. or his family were NativeAmerican. It is possible that Isabella Wigley was but we have foundno evidence in Mississippi records. Our research has been on LucindaPink Brewer, B. F.'s 2nd wife, who we are 99% certain was Indian. Wehave no actual evidence, only circumstantial evidence (her facialfeatures, the fact that her father migrated to Pike County, Arkansasfrom Tennessee at the same time many Cherokee Indians were doing so,and the fact that her children referred to the family as 'Black Dutch'which is a 19th century euphemism for Native Americans and persons ofblack ancestry). Other than these circumstantial clues, we have notyet found hard evidence.-- Linda Dudley, cited by Peggy Conley,http://awtc.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:2899172&id=I24115

She had a sister named Lieu (or Lou) and possibly a brothernamed Oscar.

B. F. Lovin was a minister and they lived at different times inArkansas, Oklahoma and Texas.-- http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CAG.2ACIB/2367--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
